However you ended up needing to self-isolate, the facts remain the same for everyone. You have to stay, in your house, apartment, or hotel, for a specific period. For some, it might be two weeks, and for others, it might be less, 8 days for example. During the last 18 months, the term self-isolation has been bandied around just as much Covid. Doing it isn't very fun but it is a legal requirement and you can face a hefty fine for breaking the law.

During THIS SELF-ISOLATION PERIOD, IT’S VITAL YOU MAINTAIN A HEALTHY BALANCED DIET BY EATING THREE NUTRITIOUS MEALS a day. This, of course, matters whether you're looking to lose weight, build muscle, or just enjoy a balanced diet. However, when you're stuck inside all day, how can you achieve that? 

Thankfully, HERE AT BOZU, WE OFFER MEAL DELIVERY SERVICES that are packed with a host of delicious recipes. All are made from quality ingredients by a team of chefs who work hard to ensure every single meal is of the highest standard. In today's blog, we're going to be looking at the importance of a nutritious, balanced diet so that you can maintain good health during the isolation period, whether you have Covid-19 or not. 

From breakfast through to dinner, WE CAN SUPPLY YOU WITH ALL THE FLAVOURSOME FOOD YOU'LL EVER NEED TO GET THROUGH THE TIME THAT YOU'RE ISOLATING IN A HOTEL after a foreign trip, or at home.

In this blog, we'll show you just how easy it is to enjoy our meal prep options and show you a selection of meals that our current happy customers love. To learn more, read on!

WHAT ARE THE CURRENT SELF ISOLATION RULES?

As RESTRICTIONS EASE MONTH BY MONTH, IT MAY BE HARD TO REMEMBER WHAT THE CURRENT SELF-ISOLATION RULES are. After all, it's easy to get caught up in the return to normalcy! However, even as vaccination levels rise, testing positive, or being pinged by the NHS Covid-19 app, still means you have to self-isolate. With that established, let's take a brief look at the current rules:

If you have tested positive for Covid-19 the period in which you must not leave your home, hotel, or apartment begins the day your symptoms started, and the next 10 days after that. If someone you live with has tested positive you essentially act as if you have contracted it, and self isolate for 10 full days. If after 10 days you get no symptoms, you may end the self-isolation period. 

If the NHS TEST AND TRACE PROGRAMME CONTACTS YOU telling you to self-isolate, or the Covid-19 app tells you, you must immediately return to your main abode. This period includes that day you were last in contact with the positive person, plus 10 full days. 

So essentially, it's 10 full days, which is a long time when you think about it. It's more than a working week and if you're unlucky, it could be over two weekends. During this period, you're either dealing with having hopefully mild Covid-19 symptoms, looking after someone or just trying to stave off boredom because you're either symptomless or are testing negative. 

These reasons, let alone the need to keep up fitness levels and maintain a balanced diet, is enough to make you want to take advantage of fresh ingredients and dishes from our meal delivery services. Let's TAKE A LOOK AT WHY YOU SHOULD BE CONSIDERING HAVING HEALTHY FOOD DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR DOORSTEP while you're cut off from the supermarkets and the outside world. 

BENEFITS OF HEALTHY MEAL PREP WHILE SELF ISOLATING

From the obvious ones to the more discreet benefits, THERE ARE DOZENS OF REASONS WHY PREMIUM MEAL PREP FROM DIETS 2 GO CAN SAVE YOU TIME, MONEY, waste, and stress. Stress which, during self-isolation, you do not need! 

Our team can deliver anywhere in the UK mainland, for free. For instance, if you have come back from a foreign trip and are having to self-isolate in a government-designated hotel, we can supply you with enough meals to last you the entire time you're there. 

Or, if you're going to be stuck in your home for 10 days, we can send you flavoursome food in no time at all. Let's look at some benefits of food delivery services:

  • Time-saving - Even when you're self-isolating and stuck indoors, no one really wants to spend time cooking a meal for their other half, or their entire family. Sure, we all tried to make sourdough during lockdown one but that phase has well and truly passed. Our popular meal delivery service will save you a load of time. Simply throw your chosen meal in the microwave or heat it up in the oven and voila! You have a delicious dish right there. 
  • Avoid overeating - With boredom, comes overeating. When there's nothing else to do, people turn to the fridge, that's just a fact. Luckily, with prepared meals, you'll never fall foul and hit the biscuit tin. And, if the hunger pangs do strike, our expert chefs have created a range of perfect, health-conscious snacks like our protein balls, which will more than hit the spot and keep energy levels high.
  • No more waste - We've all done it. We've all bought a massive shop full of fresh fruit and veg, only for it to go off a few days later. Not only is it annoying, but it's also expensive. Thankfully, all our breakfast, lunch, and dinner options are perfectly portioned and are great for 99% of appetites meaning the only 'waste' you'll have is our recyclable packaging. This keeps budgets in check and keeps your food waste bin empty. 
  • Get all the nutrients you need - Now more than ever, it is vital that what you're putting in your body is giving you as many health benefits as possible. The quality of ingredients that we use in our fresh meals is packed with nutrients and other goodness that's going to keep your body ticking over nicely while you wait out isolation at home, or in a hotel. Eating junk is going to make you feel lethargic and tired which is the last thing you want. Let our breakfasts, lunches, and delicious dinners keep a spring in your step. 
  • Something to look forward to - Think of our food delivery services like ordering a takeaway! That is always exciting. During the boredom of self-isolation, our meals will act as a fantastic way to break the day up!

WHY NUTRITIOUS FOOD IS SO IMPORTANT DURING COVID

There is no denying that maintaining a healthy diet, that's packed with vegetables, nutrients, and other fresh ingredients is vital during Covid-19. While there is obviously no link between a bad diet and contracting the coronavirus, as with anything, if you have a better diet then THE SYMPTOMS OF ILLNESSES WILL BE MORE MANAGEABLE AND LESSENED BECAUSE YOUR BODY HAS A GOOD IMMUNE SYSTEM, supported by a healthy diet. 

Away from battling the mild symptoms of Covid, just ensuring you have a good diet while self-isolating is really important. Being STUCK INSIDE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO, FOR EXAMPLE, GO FOR LONG WALKS, CAN HAVE A REAL EFFECT on your mental and physical health. Therefore it’s important to feed your body and brain produce that is going to make you feel good, and keep you healthy.
